3 Reasons Ethereum's (ETH) Bull Run Isn't Over Yet cryptonews
ETH
TL;DR

Despite bleeding out lately, Ethereum continues to show bullish signals.
Some analysts see recovery hinging on ETH reclaiming $4,200, while others lean bearish, eyeing a slide to $3,500 unless support holds.

Are the Bulls Coming Back?
Ethereum, which was at the forefront of gains this summer, briefly plunged below $4,000 earlier today (September 25) amid an ongoing red wave passing through the entire crypto market. It later surpassed the psychological level but remains 12% down on a weekly scale.

Despite the negative performance, three crucial factors signal that a resurgence could be on the way. The first one is the diminishing supply of ETH tokens stored on crypto exchanges. CryptoQuant’s data shows that today the figure has dropped to a nine-year low of around 16.3 million coins. 

This development indicates that many investors have switched from centralized platforms to self-custody solutions, which in turn reduces immediate selling pressure. 

Next in line is Ethereum’s Relative Strength Index (RSI). The technical analysis tool examines the asset’s recent price movements to indicate whether it has entered oversold or overbought territory. It ranges from 0 to 100, and readings below 30 suggest that the first scenario could be in play, which can result in a rally. As of press time, the RSI stands at roughly 22.

Last but not least, we will touch upon the latest whale activity that may also positively impact ETH’s valuation. X user ZYN revealed that ten new wallets have purchased over 200,000 tokens worth more than $800 million in the last 24 hours. 

Such actions reduce the amount of coins available on the open market and could be followed by a price pump (should demand remain constant or rise). Additionally, smaller players may view this as an encouraging sign and join the ecosystem by distributing fresh capital. 

The Analysts’ Take
According to X user Lennaert Snyder, Ethereum’s road to recovery goes through a crucial reclaim of $4,200.

“Watching that level for confirmation shorts and longs after the gain. Losing $3,900 support brings us to the $3,700 zone, holding that is key to maintain the weekly uptrend,” he argued.

The analyst, using the X moniker Ted, leaned more bearish for the short term. He predicted that ETH will most likely retest $3,800, which could result in a further downtrend to $3,500. On the other hand, if it holds this level, “a rally will happen.”

Crypto Market Crash: XRP Drops 4%, Bitcoin and Ethereum Sink in September Sell-Off cryptonews
BTC ETH XRP
In the past 24 hours, the global crypto market cap slipped 2.76% to $3.75 trillion as selling pressure weighed heavily across major assets. Bitcoin fell 2.75% to trade near $109,370, while Ethereum lost 2.30%, holding just below $4,000. XRP led declines among top altcoins with a sharp 4.33% drop to $2.75, followed by BNB sliding 5.56% and Solana shedding 5.14% to $196. The downturn also hit Dogecoin, down 3.71%, and Cardano, down 2.67%. 

Understanding The Market SentimentBitcoin Under PressureBitcoin has slipped below $110,000, raising questions about whether the market is entering a deeper correction. On the daily chart, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is approaching oversold levels. Analysts said that this is part of the natural market cycle where prices swing between overbought and oversold zones.

A sharp recovery above $118,000 would confirm the start of a new bullish cycle. Until then, downside risks remain.

Bears in ControlFor several weeks, the weekly MACD has signaled bearish momentum. This shows sellers remain in control for now. September has historically been a weak month for Bitcoin. While cycles can vary, the current correction fits within a broader seasonal trend. Earlier this year, Bitcoin defied expectations by setting a record high of $124,000 in August. Normally, summer months are slow, but this cycle was different due to external shocks like the tariff crash.

Whales, Sentiment, and PatienceCorrections often lead to fear, boredom, and frustration among investors. Analysts argue that large market players use these conditions to shake out weaker hands. Despite the short-term pain, the macro thesis remains intact. Oversold conditions could pave the way for a strong rebound later this year.

XRP Slump Worsens, Sheds 4% — Analyst Says Coin Can Rebound When This Happens cryptonews
XRP
XRP (CRYPTO: XRP) deepened its decline Thursday as cryptocurrencies tumbled amid growing macroeconomic uncertainty.

XRP Sees Heavy Sell-OffThe fourth-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization slid over 5% over the last 24 hours, while a 40% surge in trading volume indicated heavy selling pressure.

XRP's 24-hour losses exceeded those of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) and Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH). The $9 billion asset was down over 10% in a week. Stronger-than-expected economic data dashed interest rate cut hopes, sending stock and cryptocurrencies lower.

Meanwhile, XRP’s open interest dropped 1.79%, with roughly $1.5 billion in futures contracts wiped out in the last seven days, according to Coinglass.

See Also: Ripple (XRP) Price Prediction: 2025, 2026, 2030

Widely followed cryptocurrency analyst and trader CasiTrades projected a potential low at $2.715 for XRP.

"This is the bottom trendline of the consolidation and, importantly, would still not make a new low in the correction," the analyst stated.

According to TradingView, XRP’s Relative Strength Index traded close to the oversold level, indicating that there is room for further drop before a move up.

Meanwhile, the Bull Bear Power indicator, which measures the strength of buyers and sellers, showed a “Neutral” reading for the coin.

Price Action: At the time of writing, XRP was exchanging hands at $2.75, down 4.30% in the last 24 hours, according to data from Benzinga Pro.

SUI Retest Ascending Triangle Support Amid 8% Drop – Bounce Or Breakdown Next? cryptonews
SUI
SUI is attempting to hold a crucial area as support amid the recent market downturn. Some analysts suggest the altcoin’s price is retesting a make-or-break level that will determine the direction of its next big move.

SUI Hits Two-Month Low
On Thursday, SUI is retesting the local range lows after an 8% daily drop from the $3.40 area to a key support level. The recent market pullbacks have momentarily halted most bullish rallies, sending leading cryptocurrencies like Ethereum (ETH) to an eight-week low of $3,800.

Now, SUI’s rally, which was fueled by institutional interest, Digital Asset Treasuries (DATs), and positive developments for the network, has declined over 21% in the weekly timeframe.

The cryptocurrency has seen a strong three-month rally following its early Q3 breakout to its multi-month high of $4.44. The altcoin has hovered between the $3.10-$4.00 levels over the past three months, attempting to break out of this range multiple times.

Last week, SUI’s price retested this area for the third time during this period, but has since been rejected from the range highs after failing to hold the $3.80 mark as support.

Market watcher Daan Crypto Trades highlighted that the cryptocurrency has been “stuck” inside the $3.10-$4.30 range since May, briefly losing the support area during the June pullback.

According to the trader, the five-month consolidation should eventually lead to a big price move out of the range.  “As we approach the range low/support, it’s back on my radar for a potential range play,” he noted, adding that it would need a strong bounce from this area to hold the macro range.

On the contrary, Daan suggested that “If it sits there and doesn’t do anything, then that’s a red flag,” as it would risk losing the crucial multi-month support and retracing toward the June lows.

Price Retests Make-Or-Break Level
Amid the retracement, SUI is also retesting another crucial support. As multiple analysts pointed out, the cryptocurrency is trading within a textbook ascending triangle pattern on a higher timeframe.

Notably, the price has been compressing within the pattern’s upper and lower boundaries since early Q2. Throughout the multi-month consolidation, each time the altcoin has bounced from the ascending support, it has retested the flat upper trendline.

Ali Martinez highlighted that a successful breakout from the bullish formation’s resistance line around the $4 barrier would set the stage for a retest of its all-time high (ATH) level of $5.35 and an overall 75% rally toward the $7 area.

Similarly, analyst Sjuul from AltCryptoGems affirmed that “it’s really time to pay attention” to the bullish formation, as the price compression continues and a break from the pattern seems imminent.

Per the post, SUI’s price must hold the triangle’s rising lower trendline to be able to attempt to break out of the pattern again. Failing to maintain this key support, currently located around the $3.10 area, could invalidate the setup and lead to a retest of the $2.40-$2.90 zone.

As of this writing, SUI is trading at $3.15, a nearly 10% decline in the monthly timeframe.

TeraWulf Plans $3B Debt-Financed Expansion Amid Bitcoin Mining Boom cryptonews
BTC
TeraWulf is moving to raise roughly $3 billion in debt to accelerate build-outs of its data-center footprint, in a financing effort backed by Google, the company’s finance chief said in an interview. The structure being explored would fund expansion of TeraWulf’s facilities to serve both AI workloads and crypto mining demand.

According to CFO Patrick Fleury, the firm is evaluating issuance either into the high-yield bond market or through leveraged loans, with Morgan Stanley arranging the potential transaction. Fleury told Bloomberg the deal could be launched as early as October, though negotiations remain ongoing and there is no certainty a deal will close.

TeraWulf’s Google link, prior deals, and capital moves
Google has already materially increased its financial support for TeraWulf: according to reporting, Google boosted a backstop commitment by $1.4 billion, bringing its total backing to roughly $3.2 billion, and its equity stake in TeraWulf rose to about 14% from 8% earlier this year. The company has also attracted strong commercial interest from AI hosting partner Fluidstack, which expanded usage of a TeraWulf-run data center in New York.

TeraWulf is expected to raise approximately $3 billion to support the build-out of its data centers via a structure supported by Google https://t.co/ceLrIX7oRv

— Bloomberg (@business) September 25, 2025

TeraWulf also disclosed plans in August for a $400 million private offering of convertible senior notes due 2031, with proceeds earmarked partly for capped call transactions and partly to fund data-center expansion and corporate needs. If the new $3B financing completes, it would rank among the largest debt deals executed by a crypto miner pivoting into AI infrastructure.

Credit profile, ratings and deal mechanics
Credit-rating agencies are reportedly reviewing the proposed financing, with expectations that the debt could be rated in the BB–CCC range typical of high-yield or “junk” issuers — though Google’s backstop could help secure better pricing or a higher rating band if underwriters and agencies are satisfied. Morgan Stanley is said to be coordinating placement conversations.

Why miners now court AI and hyperscalers
Surging AI demand has created shortages of data-center capacity, GPUs and large blocks of reliable power — assets where large crypto-mining operators already have scale and infrastructure. TeraWulf’s pivot to host AI workloads follows a series of commercial agreements and is part of a broader industry trend in which miners monetize excess capacity and shift toward high-performance computing colocation. Earlier reporting placed TeraWulf’s signed AI/HPC hosting contracts (via Fluidstack) at multibillion-dollar levels and noted plans to deploy over 200 MW of IT load at its Lake Mariner site — figures that helped trigger renewed investor interest.

Risk and outlook
The deal would materially change TeraWulf’s capital structure and risk profile: raising $3 billion of debt in volatile markets carries refinancing and covenant risk, but successful placement — particularly with Google’s support — could fast-track TeraWulf’s transformation into a sizable AI/HPC host while improving revenues beyond bitcoin mining. Company spokespeople did not provide comment to Cryptonews at the time of reporting.

XRP Price Faces Pressure – Another Dip Raises Concerns Of Extended Decline cryptonews
XRP
XRP price attempted a recovery wave above the $2.850 zone but failed. The price is again moving lower and might decline again below the $2.720 zone.

XRP price is moving lower below the $2.850 support zone.
The price is now trading below $2.840 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average.
There was a break below a connecting bullish trend line with support at $2.850 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from Kraken).
The pair could continue to move down if it dips below $2.720.

XRP Price Dips Below Support
XRP price attempted a recovery wave above the $2.90 level, beating Bitcoin and Ethereum. The price was able to surpass the $2.90 and $2.92 resistance levels before the bears appeared.

A high was formed at $2.995 and the price started a fresh decline. There was a drop below the $2.90 support. Besides, there was a break below a connecting bullish trend line with support at $2.850 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair.

A low was formed at $2.724 and the price is now consolidating below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $2.995 swing high to the $2.724 low.

The price is now trading below $2.850 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price might face resistance near the $2.788 level. The first major resistance is near the $2.850 level and the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent decline from the $2.995 swing high to the $2.724 low.

A clear move above the $2.850 resistance might send the price toward the $2.920 resistance. Any more gains might send the price toward the $2.950 resistance. The next major hurdle for the bulls might be near $3.00.

Another Decline?
If XRP fails to clear the $2.850 resistance zone, it could continue to move down. Initial support on the downside is near the $2.720 level. The next major support is near the $2.680 level.

If there is a downside break and a close below the $2.680 level, the price might continue to decline toward $2.6150. The next major support sits near the $2.60 zone, below which the price could gain bearish momentum.

Bitcoin at 4-week low in growing signs of ‘exhaustion' — Glassnode cryptonews
BTC
Bitcoin could be headed for a deeper correction as cumulative realized long-term holder profit taking has now reached levels seen in previous market cycle tops, according to onchain analysis

Long-term holders realized 3.4 million Bitcoin (BTC) in profit, and exchange-traded fund inflows have slowed, according to Glassnode, a sign of “exhaustion” after the Federal Reserve cut rates last week. 

Bitcoin has now fallen below key support levels at around $112,000, hitting a four-week low of $108,700 on Coinbase in late Thursday trading, according to TradingView. 

It has yet to fall back to $107,500 on Sept. 1, but analysts say it could be headed that way. 

The bounce back from that dip “quickly lost momentum, and with prices now hovering close to this level again, another wave of stop-loss selling could emerge,” said 10x Research head Markus Thielen in a note shared with Cointelegraph. 

“This comes at a time when many are positioned for a Q4 rally—making the bigger surprise not a surge higher, but a correction instead.”BTC is retreating from a lower high. Source: Tradingview
Cooling phase ahead for Bitcoin, says GlassnodeGlassnode reported this week that the realized profit/loss ratio shows that profit-taking has exceeded 90% of coins moved three separate times this cycle, with the market having just stepped away from the third such extreme. 

Historically, these peaks have marked major cycle tops, and “probabilities favor a cooling phase ahead,” it stated. 

Cumulative realized profits coincide with cycle peaks. Source: GlassnodeSome Bitcoiners are selling at a lossThielen also stated that the Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR) is showing concerning behavior as some Bitcoin holders are beginning to sell at a loss, which historically marks significant market stress. 

In bull markets, SOPR dips below 1 can flag exhaustion of sellers and precede rebounds, while in bear markets, rejections at or above 1 often signal renewed downside pressure. The ratio is currently at 1.01, according to Glassnode. 

More critically, the Short-Term Holder Net Unrealized Profit/Loss (NUPL) is approaching zero, threatening to trigger liquidations as newer holders “quickly cut their losses,” he said. 

Where to next for Bitcoin?Glassnode analysts concluded that unless demand from institutions and holders aligns again, “the risk of deeper cooling remains high, highlighting a macro structure that increasingly resembles exhaustion.”

Meanwhile, Thielen said the firm remains neutral, “unless Bitcoin can reclaim $115,000.”

Strategy chair Michael Saylor was more optimistic, saying earlier this week that Bitcoin will gain in Q4 after macro headwinds subside. 

The asset was trading at $109,645 at the time of writing, having lost 6.5% over the past week.

XRP price prediction as XRPR ETF assets near $100 million cryptonews
XRP
The XRP price joined the broader crypto market in a steep sell-off this week. It dropped to a low of $2.75, down from the all-time high of nearly $3.2. Still, its strong technicals and the ongoing asset growth in the XRPR ETF will likely lead to a strong rebound soon.

Ethereum Leads Stablecoin Growth as Tether Treasury Mints $1B USDT cryptonews
ETH USDT
Tether Treasury minted 1 billion USDT on the Ethereum blockchain on September 26, 2025, a move flagged by on-chain tracker Whale Alert at 10:22 AM (UTC+8). The issuance increased USDT’s circulating supply by roughly $1.003 billion, reflecting a fresh injection of liquidity into trading, lending, and DeFi venues.

Tether’s USDT Mint: Why Ethereum and Why Now
Tether’s issuance was described by CryptosNewss as a standard liquidity operation: new USDT tokens are created when equivalent fiat reserves back them, ensuring the stablecoin’s 1:1 peg to the U.S. dollar while providing counterparties (exchanges, desks, institutions) with on-chain dollars for activity.

Ethereum was the network of choice for this mint because ERC-20 USDT benefits from deep integration across wallets, centralized exchanges and decentralized finance protocols — offering fast settlement and high on-chain liquidity. The article notes this issuance arrives while Ethereum itself shows renewed activity, with the token recently trading near $4,500 and ETF investor interest picking up.

Network upgrades and ecosystem context
CryptosNewss also highlights a recent milestone in Ethereum development: the Pectra upgrade, released May 7, 2025, which combined Prague (execution layer) and Electra (consensus layer) changes and implemented 11 EIPs intended to improve user and developer experiences on the network. That upgrade is cited as part of the backdrop that keeps Ethereum the preferred settlement layer for major stablecoin issuances.

Stablecoin flows and cross-chain activity
On-chain analytics referenced in the report show massive stablecoin activity: USDT recorded a transaction volume figure of $484.17 billion, outpacing USD-stablecoin flows cited at $319.20 billion in the same data snapshot. The article connects Tether’s mint to broader stablecoin liquidity dynamics, noting contemporaneous USDC activity — specifically Circle’s addition of 250 million USDC on Solana — and stating that USDC’s total supply surged to about $10 billion in recent weeks, underscoring intense multi-chain demand for dollar-pegged tokens.

What this means for markets
A $1B USDT mint on Ethereum signals dealers and platforms are preparing for or responding to heightened liquidity needs — whether for exchange flows, margin, or DeFi integration. While minting itself doesn’t inherently move price, the fresh supply lubricates market activity and can presage increased trading or lending demand. CryptosNews frames the mint as part of a continuing trend: stablecoins remain central plumbing for crypto markets across multiple blockchains.

Why Nano Nuclear Energy Stock Was Sliding This Week stocknewsapi
NNE
Companies usually see a bump in their share price when included on a stock index. That didn't happen this time.

According to data compiled by S&P Global Market Intelligence, Nano Nuclear Energy's (NNE -2.79%) share price had eroded by almost 11% week to date as of Thursday night. This, despite the fact that the company was included on several stock indexes managed by a well-known indexer.

Come and join
Before market open that day, Nano announced that its stock is now a component of not one, not two, but three equity indexes managed by S&P Dow Jones Indices. The trio is the S&P Global Broad Market index (BMI), the S&P Total Market index (TMI), and the SPX Completion index.

Image source: Getty Images.

These, however, are not as closely tracked and have less prominence than other equity gauges in the S&P family (most notably the S&P 500 index).

At least Nano has plenty of company. In terms of composition, the BMI is certainly sprawling. As of the end of August, it has 14,782 component stocks, which are collectively headquartered in 48 countries around the globe.

The other indexes are notably smaller, at 3,360 for S&P Completion and 3,865 for TMI. The two are related -- S&P Completion has the same composition as TMI, except with the stocks also on the S&P 500 index stripped out.

The good old index effect
Nano's ascensions definitely represent an advancement for the next-generation nuclear company. However, many investors might be thinking they aren't enough of an advancement, since in prestige and visibility terms, the trio is under the level of closely monitored mainstays, again like the S&P 500 index.

Nevertheless, if it hasn't already been discovered and researched simply by its presence in the currently hot nuclear sector, Nano will soon go under the microscope by a host of index funds. After all, such vehicles are constantly on the hunt for good investments among a relatively limited pool of stocks.

Yum China Recognized in Fortune's 2025 "Change the World" List for KFC's Food Bank Initiative stocknewsapi
YUMC
, /PRNewswire/ -- Yum China Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: YUMC and HKEX: 9987, "Yum China" or the "Company") has been named to Fortune's 2025 "Change the World" list, which recognizes companies that drive positive social impact through initiatives integrated into their core business strategy. This year, the list highlights KFC China's Food Bank program. It marks the second time the Company has been included in this annual ranking, following the feature of its One Yuan Donation Program in 2023.

The KFC Food Bank program, originally launched in 2020 in Shenzhen, has earned wide public recognition, expanding to more than 1,000 stations in over 180 cities across China. The program provides free, surplus food still within shelf life to community members in need via stations located next to KFC stores. This initiative supports local communities while contributing towards Yum China's target to reduce food waste per restaurant by 10% by 2030 versus a 2020 baseline.

Driven by its commitment to positively impact society, Yum China has also supported the development of rural children with its One Yuan Donation Program, now in its 18th year. Since 2008, the program has raised over RMB 270 million, provided over 59.6 million nutritious meals, and built over 1,500 modern kitchens for rural schools.

Beyond the Food Bank and One Yuan Donation Program, the Company continues to make significant progress towards its sustainability goals. This includes advancing its efforts to decarbonize its operations, re-use and recycle waste materials, and adopt more sustainable alternatives where appropriate – all while keeping food safety as the top priority.

Fortune's annual Change the World list, now in its 11th year, is selected by Fortune editors based on the magazine's own reporting and independent analysis, with the most important criteria being measurable social impact, business results, and degree of innovation.

VFC Investors have Opportunity to Lead V.F. Corporation Securities Fraud Lawsuit stocknewsapi
VFC
, /PRNewswire/ -- 

Why: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of V.F. Corporation (NYSE: VFC) between October 30, 2023 and May 20, 2025, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period"), of the important November 12, 2025 lead plaintiff deadline.

So what: If you purchased V.F. Corporation securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

What to do next: To join the V.F. Corporation class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=44811 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than November 12, 2025. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

Why Rosen Law: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

Details of the case: According to the lawsuit, defendants disseminated materially false and misleading statements and/or concealed material adverse facts concerning the true state of V.F. Corporation's turnaround plans. Specifically, defendants provided investors with material information concerning V.F. Corporation's turnaround plan ("Reinvent"), which in part focused on efforts to return the Vans brand to positive growth. The lawsuit alleges that defendants concealed that additional significant reset actions would be necessary to return the Vans brand to growth, and would result in significant setbacks to Vans' revenue growth trajectory. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the V.F. Corporation class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=44811 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

Google Tells Supreme Court Changes to App Store Would Cause ‘Irreparable Harm' stocknewsapi
GOOG GOOGL

September 25, 2025

 | 

Google asked the U.S. Supreme Court on Wednesday (Sept. 24) to pause a lower court’s ruling that requires changes to the company’s app store policies, saying the changes would cause “irreparable harm” to Google and its Android ecosystem.

The lower court’s ruling, which was handed down in July in the antitrust case filed by Epic Games, requires the Google Play store to remove its restrictions that prevent developers from setting up their own marketplaces and billing systems, Bloomberg reported Thursday (Sept. 25).

That order is set to take effect Oct. 22, according to the report.

Epic spokesperson Natalie Munoz told Bloomberg, per the report: “Google continues to rely on flawed security claims that have been rejected by a jury of Americans and the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals to protect their control over Android devices. The court’s injunction should go into effect as ordered so consumers and developers can benefit from competition, choices and lower prices.”

When Epic Games sued Google, it argued that the company monopolized how consumers access apps on Android devices and make payments within apps.

After a monthlong trial, a jury found in December 2023 that Google’s app store held a monopoly in the Android app distribution and payments market.

Advertisement: Scroll to Continue

A judge ruled in October 2024 that Google must make several changes to policies that discourage competition with its app store.

The ruling would bar the company from paying developers to exclusively use its app store, bar it from prohibiting developers to tell consumers how to download the app directly, stop it from forcing developers to use its billing features, and require it to let rival app stores have access to its catalog.

Google sought to overturn the ruling but lost an appeal in July.

In its appeal, the company argued that it was unfairly barred from telling a jury it competes with Apple’s App Store and that the case should have been heard by a judge, rather than a jury, because the plaintiff sought to enjoin its conduct.

Google said at the time that it would continue its appeal.

Lee-Anne Mulholland, vice president of regulatory affairs, said in July that the ruling “will significantly harm user safety, limit choice, and undermine the innovation that has always been central to the Android ecosystem.”

Trinity One Metals Announces Upsized Private Placement stocknewsapi
ARJNF
September 25, 2025 8:59 PM EDT | Source: Trinity One Metals Ltd.
Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - September 25, 2025) - Trinity One Metals Ltd. (TSXV: TOM) ("Trinity One" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that as a result of strong investor demand, the Company has increased the aggregate proceeds of its previously announced non-brokered private placement from $600,000 to $750,000.

Under the terms of the upsized non-brokered private placement the Company proposes to issue up to a total of 15,000,000 units (each, a "Unit"), at a purchase price of $0.05 per Unit, to raise total gross proceeds of up to $750,000 (the "Offering"). Each Unit will consist of one common share of the Company and one common share purchase warrant. Each warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one common share of the Company at a price of $0.075 at any time on or before that date which is thirty-six months after the closing date of the Offering, subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV").

The net proceeds received from the sale of the Units will be used for the assessment of new growth opportunities, maintenance of the Company's existing exploration portfolio and for general working capital. The Units will be offered to qualified investors in reliance upon exemptions from the prospectus and registration requirements of applicable securities legislation. The Company may pay finders' fees to eligible finders in connection with the Offering, subject to compliance with applicable securities laws and the policies of the TSXV.

All securities issued and sold under the Offering will be subject to a hold period expiring four months and one day after the date of issuance in accordance with applicable securities laws and the policies of the TSXV. Completion of the Offering, and the payment of any finders' fees remain subject to the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSXV.

Related Party Transaction

In connection with the Offering, certain insiders of the Company, including officers and directors, intend to subscribe for 4,300,000 Units. The acquisition of the Units by insiders in connection with the Offering will be considered a "related party transaction" pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61-101- Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101") requiring the Company, in the absence of exemptions, to obtain a formal valuation for, and minority shareholder approval of, the "related party transaction". The Company is relying on an exemption from the formal valuation requirements of MI 61-101 available because no securities of the Company are listed on specified markets, including the TSX, the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange, the NASDAQ or any stock exchange outside of Canada and the United States other than the Alternative Investment Market of the London Stock Exchange or the PLUS markets operated by PLUS Markets Group plc. The Company is also relying on the exemption from minority shareholder approval requirements set out in MI 61-101 as the fair market value of the participation in the Offering by the insiders does not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of the Company, as determined in accordance with MI 61-101.

Checking in On the Pandemic Stocks: ZM, SHOP stocknewsapi
SHOP ZM
A handful of stocks benefited massively during the pandemic. It was an interesting time to be an investor, to say the least, and those who targeted the stay-at-home stocks were rewarded handsomely with considerable gains.

A few of those stocks include Shopify (SHOP - Free Report) and Zoom Video Communications (ZM - Free Report) . Let’s take a closer look at each.

Shopify Stands TallShopify’s platform gained widespread attention during the period as consumers increasingly shifted to online shopping. To little surprise, the digital trend has continued to only get more popular, providing the company with serious growth since.  

And its earnings results have helped reinforce the idea, which have regularly been strong over recent periods. Sales grew 31% year-over-year throughout its latest period, with SHOP posting double-digit percentage YoY sales growth in ten consecutive periods.

Importantly, the EPS outlook for its current fiscal year remains one of positivity, with the current $1.07 Zacks Consensus EPS estimate for its current fiscal year up 16% over the last year.

Zoom Sees Weak SalesZoom Video Communications’ cloud-native unified communications platform combines video, audio, phone, screen sharing, and chat functionalities. It’s easy to understand why shares gained popularity during that period, as many were forced onto the platform for both personal professional reasons.

Sales exploded during the pandemic before leveling off significantly over recent years, as shown below.

Image Source: Zacks Investment Research

ZM’s sales grew by nearly 5% from the year-ago period in its latest release, with adjusted EPS of $1.53 climbing 10% year-over-year. Its cash-generating abilities did see a nice boost, with operating cash flow of $516 million up from the $449.3 million mark in the same period last year. Free cash flow of $508 million was up big from $365 million in the year-ago quarter.

EPS expectations for its current fiscal year do reflect positivity, with the current $3.60 Zacks Consensus EPS estimate up nearly 40% over the last year.

Bottom Line

While stocks such as Shopify (SHOP - Free Report) and Zoom Video Communications (ZM - Free Report) were widely hailed during the pandemic, the attention since has drastically reduced.  

Shopify has, and remains, the true leader of the group concerning overall performance and fundamentals. The company hasn’t struggled post-pandemic like others, with the staying power of online shopping driving the positivity. 

Zoom shares have shown life off lows, though shares remain in desperate need of a strong quarterly release that reveals meaningful sales growth.

(GLEN.L), opens new tab, Trafigura (TRAFGF.UL) and others about a partnership to refine antimony in the U.S., part of a push to boost Western supplies of a critical mineral whose exports China has blocked.

The company, which counts billionaire John Paulson as its largest shareholder, last week received permission from the U.S. government to begin construction of its antimony and gold mine about 138 miles (222 km) north of Boise in Idaho.

Sign up here.

The mine will be the largest U.S. supplier of antimony, which is used to make bullets, solar panels and other goods. There are no current U.S. sources of the metal.

Perpetua plans to extract the metal but not refine it, fueling a push to find partners for the necessary step.

The company said in a statement to Reuters that it is in talks with Glencore, Trafigura, Clarios and Sunshine Silver about a refining partnership and plans to seek proposals in the coming weeks with a decision expected by the end of the year.

"We are encouraged by emerging opportunities to expand domestic mineral processing capacity in America and intend to make well-informed, market-based decisions when selecting a partner," said Jon Cherry, Perpetua's CEO.

Glencore declined to comment. Sunshine Silver, Clarios and Trafigura did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Perpetua's mine site has estimated reserves of 148 million pounds of antimony and 6 million ounces of gold.

The project has faced legal opposition from Idaho's Nez Perce tribe, which is concerned the mine could affect the state's salmon population.

Separately, United States Antimony

These 2 AI Stocks Pay Dividends: VRT, ETN stocknewsapi
ETN VRT
Dividends come with many great perks, with the payouts essentially reflecting a form of ‘payday’ in the market. Income-focused investors often overlook technology stocks, as these companies commonly use spare cash to fuel further growth.

But perhaps to the surprise of some, several stocks with AI exposure – Eaton (ETN - Free Report) and Vertiv (VRT - Free Report) – shell out dividend payments. For those interested in getting paid with some AI exposure, let’s take a closer look at each.

Vertiv Raises GuidanceConcerning headline figures in Vertiv’s latest release, it exceeded both consensus EPS and sales expectations, with EPS soaring 77% on the back of a 26% move higher in sales. The growth rates here are quite significant, reflective of healthy underlying demand.

Below is a chart illustrating the company’s sales on a quarterly basis.

Image Source: Zacks Investment Research

Vertiv upped its full-year 2025 sales guidance following its latest release, with the midpoint reflecting roughly 16% year-over-year growth. Vertiv also reaffirmed its five-year financial outlook, citing growing AI adoption as a key driver of data generation and data center demand.

Shares currently yield a modest 0.1% annually, with VRT increasing the payout twice over the last five years.

Image Source: Zacks Investment Research

Eaton Breaks RecordsEaton is an intelligent power management company that provides products for the data center, utility, industrial, commercial, machine building, residential, aerospace, and mobility markets. Shares have been a big beneficiary of the AI frenzy thanks to the data center exposure.

Accelerating orders and continued backlog growth contributed to its recent record-breaking quarter, with adjusted EPS of $2.95 reflecting a Q2 record and up 8% year-over-year. Organic sales grew 8% from the year-ago period, with segment margins of 23.9% also reflecting a Q2 record.

Below is a chart illustrating the company’s sales on a quarterly basis.

ETN shares also reflect a great opportunity for those with an appetite for income, sporting a 7.5% five-year annualized dividend growth rate. Impressively, the company has paid a dividend on its shares every year since 1923, with shares currently yielding 1.1% annually. Below is a chart illustrating its dividends paid on an annual basis.

Please note that the final value is calculated on a trailing twelve-month basis, as ETN’s current fiscal-year is still ongoing.

Bottom Line

Dividends offer significant benefits for investors, providing a passive income stream and the opportunity to maximize returns through dividend reinvestment.

Although both dividend-paying tech stocks above – Eaton (ETN - Free Report) and Vertiv (VRT - Free Report) – aren’t high-yield, the bullish outlook for these companies’ offerings can’t be overlooked by income-focused investors seeking to join the frenzy.

Gold (XAUUSD) and Silver Consolidate Near Highs as Recession Fears Boost Safe-Haven Demand stocknewsapi
AAAU DGL DGP GLD GLDM IAU IAUF OUNZ UGL
This data supports a bullish case for gold. The drop in freight volumes signals a potential recession. Economic weakness raises the likelihood of additional Fed rate cuts. Lower interest rates and rising uncertainty drive demand for gold. As industrial activity slows, investors increasingly shift toward capital preservation. A fragile freight market reinforces the positive outlook for gold (XAU) and silver (XAG) prices heading into Q4 2025.

Gold price hit a record high of $3,791 before pulling back to establish new support. A breakout above this level would likely trigger the next wave of growth toward $4,000.

Gold Technical Analysis
XAUUSD Daily Chart – Bullish Consolidation
The daily chart for spot gold shows that the price hit a record high of $3,791 and is now consolidating at elevated levels. This consolidation above the $3,600 mark suggests a bullish continuation pattern that will likely resolve to the upside once the support is confirmed.

The pause near record highs also reflects extremely overbought conditions, signaling a potential short-term correction before the next leg higher. Strong support remains in the $3,600–$3,650 region, where any pullback is likely to be absorbed.

Oil set for biggest weekly gain in three months as Russia cuts fuel exports stocknewsapi

Sept 26 (Reuters) - Oil prices edged up on Friday, on track to rise at their steepest rate since early June as Ukraine's attacks on Russia's energy infrastructure push Moscow to restrict fuel exports and close to cutting crude output.

Brent futures climbed 15 cents, or 0.2%, to $69.57 a barrel by 0100 GMT, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures gained 23 cents, or 0.4%, to $65.21 a barrel.

Sign up here.

Both benchmarks have jumped over 4% this week, their biggest increase since the week ended June 13.

"Gains were supported by ongoing Ukrainian drone strikes targeting Russian oil infrastructure, NATO's warning to Russia it is ready to respond to future violations of its airspace and Russia's move to halt key fuel exports," IG analyst Tony Sycamore said.

Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said on Thursday the country would introduce a partial ban on diesel exports until the end of the year and extend an existing ban on gasoline exports.

The fall in capacity to refine oil has pushed Moscow close to reducing crude output. Several Russian regions are facing shortages of certain grades of fuel.

Both benchmarks reached their highest levels since August 1 this week, driven by a surprise drop in U.S. weekly crude inventories in addition to Ukraine's attacks on Russia's energy infrastructure.

Capping some gains, U.S. gross domestic product increased at an upwardly revised 3.8% annualized rate last quarter, the Commerce Department's Bureau of Economic Analysis said in its latest estimate on Thursday.

Stronger-than-expected economic data could make the Federal Reserve more cautious about cutting interest rates. The U.S. central bank cut rates by 25 bps last week, its first cut since December, and had signaled more reductions ahead.

The Kurdistan Regional Government's announcement on Thursday that oil exports would resume within 48 hours also pressured prices.

Strategic Initiative Combines Hitachi’s Deep Operational Technology (OT) Expertise with Powerful NVIDIA Accelerated Computing and AI Software Stack

SANTA CLARA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hitachi, Ltd. (TSE:6501, "Hitachi"), today announced the establishment of a global Hitachi AI Factory based on NVIDIA AI Factory reference architecture, yielding a centralized infrastructure designed to accelerate the development and deployment of physical AI solutions across Hitachi’s core business sectors. The AI Factory is powered by Hitachi iQ with NVIDIA HGX B200 systems featuring NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs; Hitachi iQ M Series with NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Server Edition GPUs; and NVIDIA Spectrum-X Ethernet networking platform. This strategic initiative directly supports Hitachi's ambition to create and deploy AI that interacts with the real world. The AI Factory will also enable Hitachi to further expand HMAX—the company’s family of AI-enabled solutions solving a wide-range of complex problems in the Mobility, Energy, Industrial and Technology sectors.

The centralized AI Factory provides Hitachi’s global teams with a powerful unified AI computing infrastructure to run applications and AI workflows developed on the NVIDIA full-stack AI platform, which includes NVIDIA AI Enterprise for production-grade AI as well as NVIDIA Omniverse libraries for simulation, industrial scale, and physically accurate digital twins. This infrastructure allows for the rapid development and deployment of advanced physical AI models. These models will acquire and interpret information from physical environments via cameras and sensors; determine the next steps to take; and execute actions based on that data.

Today’s announcement builds on Hitachi, Ltd. President and CEO Toshiaki Tokunaga’s recent comment on the Hitachi-NVIDIA partnership wherein he stated that, by leveraging Hitachi iQ built on NVIDIA RTX PRO Servers, Hitachi will further accelerate AI innovation. Mr. Tokunaga specified that through the NVIDIA RTX PRO Servers’ ability to accelerate AI reasoning and physical AI, digital twin development and physical asset optimization (including social infrastructure) is augmented while new possibilities such as productivity improvement across all business activities are unlocked.

The Hitachi AI Factory is strategically distributed across the United States, EMEA, and Japan ensuring that Hitachi’s engineers can collaborate seamlessly and access powerful computing resources with low latency, no matter where they are. This interconnected network will support the creation of a wide range of physical AI applications, driving new levels of efficiency, productivity, and safety across industries.

The initiative reinforces Hitachi's commitment to using cutting-edge technology to drive both social and business innovation.

“The strategic collaboration between Hitachi and NVIDIA is becoming a key engine for solving complex real-world problems, accelerating social innovation,” said Jun Abe, General Manager of the Digital Systems & Services Division. “Our work together leverages NVIDIA AI infrastructure to achieve both DX (Digital Transformation) and GX (Green Transformation) with solutions like Hitachi Rail's HMAX, which is currently transforming railway operations and maintenance; Hitachi Vantara's AI solution portfolio Hitachi iQ; and Hitachi's liquid-cooled AI data centers supporting our generative AI foundation. By establishing a global NVIDIA AI Factory, we can now operate as a true 'One Hitachi' across regions and organizations. A synergy that will accelerate physical AI innovations, as exemplified by HMAX.”

Operationalizing the Corporate Vision

Hitachi views the AI Factory as a fundamental step toward achieving its Lumada 3.0 vision. Lumada is Hitachi’s operating model that helps enterprises solve business and societal problems through co-created digital transformation. It harnesses Hitachi’s extensive domain knowledge and technical expertise, combined with AI technologies to convert data into value while reducing operational costs and inefficiencies.

Hitachi is unique in its ability to integrate IT, OT, and hardware expertise as illustrated by the engineering design capabilities, products, and consultative services making up Lumada 3.0. The company leads the Industrial AI market with disruptive solutions that redefine what’s possible.

“AI factories are the engines of a new industrial revolution, converting enterprise data into autonomous intelligence for both software and the physical world,” said Justin Boitano, Vice President, Enterprise AI Products, NVIDIA. “With NVIDIA accelerated computing and software, Hitachi’s AI factory infrastructure provides a transformative platform for building and deploying enterprise and physical AI.”

Nick Gawne, WildBrain CFO, added: "In Fiscal 2025, our focus on our core brands, our investments in high-growth areas and our continued financial discipline drove growth in revenue, adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow. Looking to Fiscal 2026, we expect that story to continue with strong underlying growth in the core business, driven by doubling down on high-growth areas alongside continued focus on operating efficiency."

In the Q3 financial statements, the Company disclosed that as a result of Bell's decision to cancel Television channels, the Company was renegotiating certain elements of the Sale Agreement. At June 30, 2025, the Company determined that the sale of Television no longer met the threshold set out in IFRS 5 of being highly probable and as a result, reinstated the Television segment into held-for-use. In August 2025, the Company announced that it would be ceasing operation of Television later this year. Until the cessation occurs, Television will be reported in net income from operations. In Q2 2026, Television will return to discontinued operations.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release may contain forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities legislation, which reflects WildBrain's current assumptions and expectations regarding future events as at the time they are made. The words "will", "expects", "anticipates", "believes", "plans", "intends" and similar expressions are often intended to identify forward-looking information, although not all forward-looking information contains these identifying words. Although the Company believes that the assumptions and factors used in preparing, and the expectations contained in, the forward-looking information and statements are reasonable, undue reliance should not be placed on such information and statements, and no assurance or guarantee can be given that such forward-looking information and statements will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such information and statements. Forward-looking information is based on a number of assumptions and is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond WildBrain's control, which could cause actual results and events to differ materially from those that are disclosed in or implied by such forward-looking information. Such risks and uncertainties include but are not limited to: changes in general economic, business and political conditions. WildBrain undertakes no obligation to update such forward-looking information, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as expressly required by applicable law.

Non-IFRS Measures

In addition to the results reported in accordance with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, the Company uses various non-GAAP financial measures, which are not recognized under IFRS, as supplemental indicators of our operating performance and financial position. These non-GAAP financial measures are provided to enhance the user's understanding of our historical and current financial performance and our prospects for the future. Management believes that these measures provide useful information in that they exclude amounts that are not indicative of our core operating results and ongoing operations and provide a consistent basis for comparison between periods. The following discussion explains the Company's use of certain non-GAAP financial measures, which are Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA attributable to the Shareholders of the Company, Gross Margin and Free Cash Flow.

Investors are cautioned that these non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an alternative measure to net income or loss, or other measures as determined in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of the Company's financial performance or a measure of liquidity and cash flows.

"Adjusted EBITDA" means earnings (loss) before net finance costs, income taxes, amortization of property & equipment and right-of-use and intangible assets, amortization of acquired and library content, equity-settled share-based compensation expense, changes in fair value of embedded derivatives, gain/loss on foreign exchange, reorganization, development and other expenses, impairment of certain investments in film and television programs/acquired and library content/P&E/intangible assets/goodwill, and also includes adjustments for other identified charges, as specified in the accompanying tables. Adjusted EBITDA is not an earnings measure recognized by GAAP and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP; accordingly, Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Management believes that certain lenders, investors and analysts use Adjusted EBITDA to measure a company's ability to service debt and meet other payment obligations, and as a common valuation measurement in the media and entertainment industry. Further, certain of our debt covenants use Adjusted EBITDA in the calculation. The most comparable GAAP measure is earnings before income taxes.

"Adjusted EBITDA attributable to the Shareholders of the Company" means Adjusted EBITDA excluding the portion of Adjusted EBITDA attributable to non-controlling interests.

"Gross Margin" means revenue less direct production costs and expense of film and television produced. Gross Margin is not an earnings measure recognized by GAAP and does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP; accordingly, Gross Margin may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Management believes Gross Margin is a useful measure of profitability before considering operating and other expenses and can be used to assess the Company's ability to generate positive net earnings and cash flows. The most comparable GAAP measure is gross profit.

"Free Cash Flow" means operating cash flow less distributions to non-controlling interests, changes in interim production financing, cash interest paid on our long-term debt, bank indebtedness, and lease liabilities, and principal repayments on our lease liabilities. Free Cash Flow does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP; accordingly, Free Cash Flow may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Management believes Free Cash Flow is a useful measure of the Company's ability to repay debt, finance strategic business acquisitions and investments, pay dividends, and repurchase shares. The most comparable GAAP measure is cash from operating activities.

ROSEN, A LONGSTANDING FIRM, Encourages CTO Realty Growth, Inc. Investors to Secure Counsel Before Important October 7 Deadline in Securities Class Action – CTO, CTO-PA stocknewsapi
CTO
NEW YORK, Sept. 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of securities of CTO Realty Growth, Inc. (NYSE: CTO, CTO-PA) between February 18, 2021 and June 24, 2025, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the October 7, 2025 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased CTO Realty securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the CTO Realty class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=43344 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for more information. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than October 7, 2025. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually litigate securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, throughout the Class Period, defendants made false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) CTO’s dividends were less sustainable than defendants had led investors to believe; (2) CTO Realty Growth used deceptive and unsustainable practices to artificially inflate its Adjusted Funds from Operations (“AFFO”) and overstate the true profitability of its Ashford Lane property; (3) accordingly, CTO Realty Growth’s business and/or financial prospects were overstated; and (4) as a result, defendants’ public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the CTO Realty class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=43344 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for more information.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

Meta Denies Report It's Considering Google AI Models for Ad Business stocknewsapi
META
By

PYMNTS
 | 
September 25, 2025

 | 

Meta denied a media report that it is considering using Google’s artificial intelligence (AI) models in its ad business.

The Information reported Thursday (Sept. 25), citing unnamed sources, that Meta is considering this move and has had discussions with Google Cloud about doing so.

Reached by PYMNTS, a Meta spokesperson said the company is only using Google’s models for benchmarking.

“We’ve always built our own industry-leading, proprietary ad targeting and recommendation systems,” the Meta spokesperson said in an email. “Separate from that, we regularly evaluate third-party tools for the purpose of benchmarking, which is the case here.”

The Information report said Meta was looking into using Google’s AI models to help summarize ads for its ad recommendation system, which aims to show ads to the people for whom they are meant.

According to The Information report, this consideration of another company’s technology signals that Meta has seen “stumbles” with its own AI and may be looking for an interim solution until its new Superintelligence Labs team refines its own Llama AI models.

The report said the talks with Google are in their early stages and may not result in a deal.

Google did not immediately reply to PYMNTS’ request for comment.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said during a July 30 earnings call that advertising efficiency is one area in which AI is already changing the company’s products. He said new recommendation models had lifted ad conversions 5% on Instagram and 3% on Facebook in the quarter.

Zuckerberg also outlined his ambition for “superintelligence.”

“Over the last few months, we’ve begun to see glimpses of our AI systems improving themselves, and the improvement is slow for now, but undeniable,” Zuckerberg said during the call. “Developing superintelligence — which we define as AI that surpasses human intelligence in every way — is now in sight.”

It was reported in June that Meta plans to create and target advertisements using AI by the end of 2026 and that the move is a key element of Zuckerberg’s vision for the future of Meta, where advertising remains the core revenue driver.

Meta pursued a massive recruitment drive during the summer, adding AI professionals and offering, in some cases, nine-figure compensation packages.

SAN DIEGO, Sept. 25, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The law firm of Robbins Geller Rudman & Dowd LLP announces that the C3.ai class action lawsuit – captioned Liggett v. C3.ai, Inc., No. 25-cv-07129 (N.D. Cal.) – seeks to represent purchasers or acquirers of C3.ai, Inc. (NYSE: AI) securities and charges C3.ai as well as certain of C3.ai’s executives with violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

You can also contact attorneys J.C. Sanchez or Jennifer N. Caringal of Robbins Geller by calling 800/449-4900 or via e-mail at [email protected]. Lead plaintiff motions for the C3.ai class action lawsuit must be filed with the court no later than Tuesday, October 21, 2025.

CASE ALLEGATIONS: C3.ai operates as an enterprise artificial intelligence (“AI”) application software company.

The C3.ai class action lawsuit alleges that defendants created the false impression that they possessed reliable information pertaining to C3.ai’s projected revenue outlook and anticipated growth while also minimizing risk to C3.ai’s profitability from defendant CEO Thomas M. Siebel’s health concerns. In truth, according to the complaint, C3.ai’s optimistic reports of growth, earnings potential, and anticipated margins fell short of reality as they relied far too heavily on the health and effectiveness of C3.ai’s CEO.

The C3.ai class action lawsuit further alleges that on August 8, 2025, C3.ai announced disappointing preliminary financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2026 and reduced its revenue guidance for the full fiscal year 2026, attributing its poor sales results and lowered guidance on “the reorganization with new leadership” and the health ailments of its CEO. On this news, the price of C3.ai stock fell more than 25%, according to the complaint.

THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased or acquired C3.ai securities during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the C3.ai class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the C3.ai class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the C3.ai class action lawsuit. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the C3.ai class action lawsuit.

SummaryCompaniesFortescue experiences strong interest in decarbonization offerings despite US policy shiftsBillionaire Forrest challenges Trump's climate change stance, offers debate or courtroom challengeFortescue acquires Nabrawind, plans deployment of battery-powered trucksNEW YORK, Sept 25 (Reuters) - Australian miner Fortescue is experiencing strong interest in its decarbonization-related offerings, Executive Chairman Andrew Forrest said in an interview, as he challenged U.S. President Donald Trump's claim that climate change is the "greatest con job" in the world.

Fortescue has set some of the most ambitious decarbonization targets among Australia's major miners, but was recently forced to walk away from some planned green hydrogen projects. The company, the world's fourth-largest miner of iron ore, attributed the cancellation of a project in Arizona in part to a shift in U.S. policy away from green energy.

However, Forrest said he was not willing to give up despite mounting criticism of climate-driven initiatives by Trump, who on Tuesday dismissed climate change during his address to the United Nations General Assembly.

Speaking on board Fortescue's Green Pioneer, which the company says is the world's first ship capable of running on green ammonia and diesel, Forrest condemned Trump's statement and challenged the president to debate him, even if it takes place in a courtroom.

"Sue me, but I'm saying you have no basis of fact to say that," the billionaire, who ranked among Australia's richest people, said.

"I sailed (the Green Pioneer) into the middle of the lion's den to make the point that I'd much rather be getting my fuel from the air, from the sun, from the wind, which is going to be infinite, than I would from drill, baby, drill," Forrest said.

Earlier on Thursday, Fortescue said it acquired Spanish wind technology company Nabrawind and signed an agreement for the purchase of wind turbines from Envision Energy. Those deals will help accelerate the deployment of renewable energy across Fortescue's operations, Forrest said.

Fortescue also said it would deploy a fleet of 300 to 400 battery-powered mining trucks capable of hauling 240-metric-ton loads, with deliveries planned from 2028 to 2030. Chinese mining equipment maker XCMG will supply up to half the trucks, while German-Swiss equipment manufacturer Liebherr will supply the remainder, the company said.

Fortescue's order book for battery-powered trucks developed in partnership with Liebherr is strong, Forrest said, without providing further details.

The miner was likely to exceed its target of reaching 2 to 3 gigawatts of renewable energy generation and storage in its domestic iron-ore operations by 2030, Forrest said.

"We will probably do more than that because we're getting more people wanting to join in," Forrest said.
